Summary

Follow-up A from NVIDIA#3209: closes two remaining WatchSandbox resume gaps, a lock race between the log and platform tail reads, and a coverage gap where an asymmetric replay depth between the two sources could let a resumable cursor imply coverage a shallower source never actually delivered, silently dropping events on the next reconnect with no OUT_OF_RANGE.

Related Issue

Refs NVIDIA#3055 (partial; addresses the interleaving concern @varshaprasad96 raised on NVIDIA#3209, tracked there as follow-up A. Issue stays open until the SDK helpers (B/C/D) and e2e coverage (E) also land.)

Changes

  • Atomic replay snapshot. TracingLogBus::snapshot_after reads the log and platform buses under one lock hold instead of two independent tail_after calls, so a publish can no longer land between them and desync their high-water marks. Removes the now-redundant post-read epoch re-check this race previously required.
  • Cross-source coverage floor. tail_with_floor reports the newest event a bounded tail read excluded. On connect, the server takes the smallest nonzero floor across followed sources and withholds any event, from either source, at or above it, a log event that clears its own bus's floor can still sit past the platform bus's floor, and handing it out would let the client's single shared cursor outrun platform's unreplayed backlog. This can withhold the entire initial batch when a followed sibling has any backlog outside its requested tail depth (e.g. event_tail left at its default of 0); that's intentional, an emptier connect beats a resume that silently and permanently drops events.
  • Docs. Documents the coverage-floor contract in proto/openshell.proto (log_tail_lines, event_tail, resume_after_cursor), architecture/gateway.md (new Coverage floor subsection, rewritten atomic-snapshot description), and a short SDK-facing note in docs/observability/accessing-logs.mdx (openshell logs itself is unaffected, it doesn't expose asymmetric tail depths).

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Made resume validation and replay reads atomic, preventing a cursor from being applied to replacement buffers after a sandbox is recreated.
    • When replay depths differ, the gateway now warns about withheld log and platform events before the batch and keeps the shared cursor aligned with events actually delivered.
  • Documentation
    • Clarified that logs and platform events share a resume cursor, and explained how replay settings can affect events delivered on connection.

Walkthrough

The replay buses now report coverage floors for bounded tails and validate resume snapshots under one cursor-space lock. The gateway withholds initial-tail events that exceed the shared coverage floor and emits a warning with per-source counts. Documentation describes the shared cursor and replay-depth behavior.

Changes: Resumable watch replay

Layer / File(s) Summary
Replay bus reads and coverage floors
crates/openshell-server/src/tracing_bus.rs
Replay-tail reads return a coverage floor. snapshot_after validates the expected epoch and cursor bounds while reading followed sources under one cursor-space lock. Tests cover snapshot outcomes and tail floors.
Gateway replay and initial-tail filtering
crates/openshell-server/src/grpc/sandbox.rs, crates/openshell-server/src/sandbox_watch.rs, proto/openshell.proto, architecture/gateway.md, docs/observability/accessing-logs.mdx
The watch handler uses one snapshot for resume replay. For initial tails, it withholds events at or above the lowest positive coverage floor, emits a warning with withheld counts, and advances cutoffs through retained events. Tests and documentation describe these behaviors and the shared cursor.

🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Return the oldest excluded sequence as the coverage floor.

tail_with_floor_impl returns the newest excluded sequence. The initial-tail filter treats it as a lower bound and keeps events with seq < critical_floor. If one source excludes events at sequences 1 and 3, it reports floor 3. A sibling event at sequence 2 then passes the filter. The client can resume from sequence 2 and permanently skip sequence 1. tail_after cannot report this gap because the event was withheld, not evicted.

Make the producer return the oldest excluded sequence. Update the related floor tests and add an interleaved-source regression test.

The floor was the oldest retained seq and the clamp kept only events below it, so any truncated followed source withheld its whole initial batch, including single-source watches such as openshell logs --tail. Use the newest excluded seq and keep events above the highest floor across followed sources.

* build(testkit): add dependencies for the test registry and program

Add linkme for the test registry, libtest-mimic and clap for the test
program's command line, quick-junit for its report, and libc for process
control on Unix. Refresh the lockfiles of the workspaces that depend on
testkit.

Signed-off-by: Evan Lezar <elezar@nvidia.com>

* feat(testkit): register tests and add a test program with list

`#[testkit::test]` now also registers each test, with its family, name,
description and `#[ignore]` reason, in a link-time registry. The hidden
function gets only `cfg` and lint attributes; `#[should_panic]`,
`#[cfg_attr]` and `#[expect]` are rejected with an error that says why.

`testkit::main()` turns a binary into a test program. It takes libtest's
arguments, so it also works as a `harness = false` target under cargo
test and nextest, and it has a `list` subcommand that prints each test's
name and description. A program that links no tests exits 2, since Rust
does not link a suite crate that is never named.

Signed-off-by: Evan Lezar <elezar@nvidia.com>

* feat(testkit): add a ready subcommand to the test program

`ready [--timeout SECS]` waits for the gateway the program will test and
exits 2 if it is not ready in time. It shares its check with the
`testkit-ready` binary, which now calls it instead of keeping its own
copy.

Signed-off-by: Evan Lezar <elezar@nvidia.com>

* feat(testkit): add a run subcommand to the test program

`run [FILTER]... [--include-ignored] [--timeout SECS] [--grace SECS]`
runs the selected tests one at a time. Each test is a new process, the
program started as `<name> --exact --nocapture`, in its own process
group, so nothing a test starts outlives it. A test that runs past its
timeout (900s by default) gets SIGTERM, then SIGKILL after the grace
period (10s by default).

Interrupting `run` stops the current test and runs no more; a second
interrupt skips the grace period. `run` exits 1 when a test failed and 2
when tests could not run or the run was interrupted. It is Unix only; on
other platforms it says to use cargo test or nextest.

Signed-off-by: Evan Lezar <elezar@nvidia.com>

* feat(testkit): write a JUnit report from the test program's run

`run --junit PATH` writes a JUnit report with one test suite per family
and one test case per test, including skipped, failed and timed-out
tests. Each test's output is shown as it comes and the last 4 MiB of each
stream is kept for the report. The supervisor waits for a test's output
to close before it moves on, so a signal that arrives while it waits
still ends the run.

Signed-off-by: Evan Lezar <elezar@nvidia.com>

* docs(testkit): document the test program and test registration

Describe how `#[testkit::test]` registers tests, the `list`, `ready` and
`run` subcommands, their exit codes, and the limits of `run`: Unix only,
and a test stopped on a timeout does not run its cleanup.

* refactor(conformance): move the conformance suites into a library

Cargo builds each file in tests/ as its own test executable, which no other
program can link. Move the conformance suites into src/ as modules of a
library, so a test program can link them. Test code is unchanged; cargo test
and nextest run the same 15 tests as the library's unit tests.

Nextest now names them as binary `conformance`, test `<suite>::<fn>`, so
filters that selected a suite by binary select it by test name instead.

Signed-off-by: Evan Lezar <elezar@nvidia.com>

* feat(conformance): add the openshell-conformance program

The conformance crate now also builds openshell-conformance, a binary whose
main calls testkit::main() and links the crate's library. It lists, waits
for the gateway, and runs the conformance tests without cargo or nextest.
It runs only the conformance suite and promises only the conformance
contract; feature and driver suites are not part of it.

The binary has test = false, so cargo test and nextest still see one
conformance test binary, the library's unit tests, and the e2e lanes and
the runner's filters are unchanged. The library is linked without
cfg(test), so the program gets the registrations and none of the tokio
test wrappers. tasks/scripts/check-conformance-program.sh checks that
openshell-conformance list names the same tests as nextest; Branch Checks
and mise test:rust run it.

A dependency that is never named is not linked, so a suite the program
forgets to name would silently go missing. testkit::main() now fails with
exit 2 when a program links no tests, under every command.

* test(e2e): run the conformance host lanes with openshell-conformance

The Docker, Podman, VM and Kubernetes host lanes ran the conformance suite
with cargo nextest. They now run it with openshell-conformance: ready, then
run --junit, so CI exercises the program that gateway owners use.

The script uses OPENSHELL_CONFORMANCE_BIN when set and otherwise builds the
program from the checkout. The JUnit report goes to
OPENSHELL_CONFORMANCE_JUNIT or results/conformance-<gateway>.xml; the
Kubernetes runner names it after its report so credential-driver runs keep
both.

Signed-off-by: Matthew Grossman <mgrossman@nvidia.com>

* ci(e2e): build openshell-conformance once per architecture in Branch E2E

Each Docker, Podman, VM and Kubernetes host lane built the conformance
suite itself. Branch E2E now builds openshell-conformance once per
architecture as a static musl binary, checks that it is static and lists
its tests, and uploads it. setup-e2e-cli downloads the one that matches the
runner when a lane sets prebuilt-conformance, and the lane runs it through
OPENSHELL_CONFORMANCE_BIN.

The job is separate from build-binaries.yml, which the release workflows
also call: the program has its own workspace and is not released. Lanes
called without prebuilt-conformance, such as the release qualification
lanes, still build the program from the checkout.

* test(e2e): harden the conformance program helpers

Take the openshell-conformance path from cargo's build messages instead of

The single credential gating test ran six sandbox lifecycles and two
policy updates in sequence under fixed provider and profile names. On the
Kubernetes smoke lanes it took 180-290 s and regularly hit the 300 s
nextest cap.

Split it into one test per gated-endpoint scenario. Each test installs a
provider and profile under its own unique name, deletes them on drop
(also on failure), and prints timed progress lines to stderr so a slow
step is visible when a test times out.

* fix(sandbox): bound runtime shutdown after SIGTERM

After a termination signal the boundary kills the workload and stops
serving, then drops its process runtime. The drop waited without a limit
for every blocking task. The supervisor keeps an agent `Wait` exchange
open for the life of the sandbox, and that exchange blocks on a condition
variable that only the agent's async reaper wakes. When the runtime
shutdown cancelled the reaper before it recorded the exit, the `Wait`
never returned and the process stayed alive until SIGKILL, so every
delete or stop took the full termination grace period.

Stop the process runtime with a two-second bound on every return path
from `serve`. Workload kill and reaping are unchanged.

Activity, but trace.uid was added to every class, validated against
schemas composed by grafting http_activity onto eight other classes.
Strict consumers reject such records outright.

Gate enrichment on the event class, drop the composed schemas and their
tooling, and vendor only the native HTTP/API +trace exports. The
supervisor now opens a deny span only for decisions with an HTTP
Activity record, so every exported deny span has a record pointing at
it; the wiring that served Network Activity and finding-only denials is
removed.

* refactor(supervisor-network): derive deny classification from the event

Whether a decision opened a deny span came from three places: the
event action, a denied: macro arm, and a flag passed to emit_decision.
Several refusals were recorded only by those flags, so the audit
records themselves did not say the request was refused.

Mark the refusal in the records instead: fail-closed response
middleware invocations, fail-closed and transformed-body policy
failure findings, and enforced response delivery failures now carry
action Denied. Deny classification reads only the records, and the
flags are gone.

* chore(supervisor-network): reject direct ocsf_emit! in the egress crate

An HTTP deny emitted with openshell_ocsf::ocsf_emit! instead of
egress_emit! silently gets no deny span, and the crate still used the
upstream macro in several places. Disallow it in the crate clippy
config and route every emission through egress_emit!.

* feat(supervisor-network): rate-limit deny spans per destination

Every denied HTTP decision exported a root span, and the workload
controls how often it is denied. A tight retry loop against a blocked
host could fill the batch exporter queue and push out the supervisor's
other spans.

Give each destination a token bucket of 10 deny spans that refills at
one per second, tracking at most 1024 destinations. Denials past the
limit still emit their OCSF records, without a trace.

* feat(otel): set trace context on OCSF log records

OCSF records exported over OTLP carried trace correlation only in the
JSON body, and only for HTTP and API Activity. OTLP backends link logs
to traces through the log record's own trace and span ID fields.

Fill those fields from the sampled span active at emission. They are
OTLP fields, not OCSF attributes, so every class gets them without
affecting schema conformance; Network Activity and findings regain
trace links on the OTLP path.

* test(supervisor-network): use an in-memory span exporter for deny-span tests

Each deny-span test started a loopback OTLP gRPC server and waited for a
batch export, which made the suite slow. Capture spans with an in-memory
exporter instead, converted to the same OTLP span shape, and keep two
tests that export over OTLP end to end.

* docs(ocsf): describe which records report a refusal

Several records that describe a refusal gained action Denied in this
branch: FORWARD parse, canonicalization, GraphQL and JSON-RPC
rejections, enforced L7 evaluation errors, metadata-server 403/405
responses, and fail-closed middleware and response delivery records.
These shift deny counts in a SIEM, so list them where operators look
for denied records.

* refactor(supervisor-network): reduce deny spans to one entry point

The deny-span API still carried paths for nested and non-HTTP deny
scopes that no caller reaches now that only HTTP decisions get spans,
and a decision whose first HTTP record was allowed opened its deny span
with that record's destination and no reason.

emit_decision is now the single entry point, behind a one-arm
egress_emit!. It anchors the span on the denied HTTP record and sets
optional attributes directly. Records that never share a span are
emitted inline again, response diagnostics return their events so each
error path adds its own terminal failure, and the trace tests share
deny-span helpers and fixtures.

* fix(supervisor-network): keep FORWARD denials in the connect trace

At debug level, FORWARD credential-binding and request middleware
denials opened root deny spans, because the saved connect span exists
there but is not entered. Deny spans also charged the per-destination
limiter even when they were disabled, and a fail-closed WebSocket
middleware finding did not record the denial its HTTP counterparts do.

Those denials now pass or run under the saved connect span, the limiter
is consulted only when INFO spans are enabled, and the fail-closed
WebSocket finding sets action Denied.

* fix(supervisor-network): classify refusals and bound deny spans

Denied while preserving fail-open and I/O error classification.

ResolvedWorkloadIdentity derives Deserialize with public fields, so a value
decoded from a serialized descriptor (for example the supervisor's
SandboxRuntimeDescriptor payload) bypassed the non-root, non-empty, and
sorted-unique-group invariants that new() enforces. Route deserialization
through a private raw mirror type and a TryFrom impl that delegates to
new(), so invalid identities fail to decode and supplementary groups are
normalized on the way in. The wire format for valid values is unchanged.

* fix(server): bound Postgres pool waits and retry startup connect

The gateway's data pool waited sqlx's default 30 seconds for a connection
and connected only once at startup. An unreachable PostgreSQL therefore
held every request for 30 seconds before failing with INTERNAL, and a
gateway that started during the outage exited and crash-looped.

- Bound data-pool acquires at 5 seconds and report a pool timeout as a
  retryable UNAVAILABLE (DATABASE_UNAVAILABLE) from persistence error
  mapping, including the workspace and membership lookups.
- Retry an unreachable database at startup with capped backoff. The
  first failure binds the health listener, so /healthz answers and
  /readyz stays not ready, and starts listening for SIGTERM and SIGINT.
  A reachable database at startup keeps the previous order exactly.
- Keep retrying startup endpoint-status reconciliation on pool timeouts.

* feat(helm): expose priorityClassName and topologySpreadConstraints

The gateway pod template exposes nodeSelector, affinity and tolerations but
not priorityClassName or topologySpreadConstraints. Operators who need
either have to fork the chart or mutate the rendered output out-of-band.

Add two optional passthroughs:

- priorityClassName: the gateway is a control-plane component. When it shares
  nodes with the workloads it serves, the default priority gives it no
  advantage under node pressure, so a local capacity crunch can evict it and
  widen into a fleet-wide outage.
- topologySpreadConstraints: spread replicas across zones or nodes. Only
  affinity was available, which is a blunter tool for even spreading.

Both go in the shared gatewayPodTemplate, so they apply identically to the
statefulset and deployment workload shapes. Both render only when set; a
default render is byte-identical to before this change.

The data volume size/StorageClass passthroughs from the original revision are
dropped: upstream now provides them as server.dataStorageSize and
server.dataStorageClass.

* feat(cli): forward TRACEPARENT/TRACESTATE to gateway for CI trace continuity

The CLI's gateway gRPC channel now passively forwards the W3C trace context
(TRACEPARENT/TRACESTATE) from its environment, so a CI pipeline's trace parents
the gateway's spans. This needs no OTel collector or provider on the CLI side -
short-lived clients on CI runners and jump hosts just pass through what the CI
system already exports.

Add EnvTraceContextInterceptor to openshell-otel: it reads the trace context
once at construction and injects it as gRPC metadata, and is a no-op when the
context is unset or invalid. Compose it with EdgeAuthInterceptor via a new
GatewayInterceptor, since tonic allows only one interceptor per channel.

* fix(cli): normalize trace-context env reading and cover interceptor composition

Review follow-ups on the trace-context forwarding feature:

- Normalize each TRACEPARENT/TRACESTATE spelling (trim, drop blanks)
  before the lower-case fallback so a blank upper-case value no longer
  shadows a valid lower-case one
- Share one env-reading helper between EnvTraceContextInterceptor and
  set_parent_from_environment so both paths agree on what counts as set
- Pass the TRACEPARENT_ENV/TRACESTATE_ENV constants instead of duplicated
  string literals
- Log at debug level when a present TRACEPARENT is invalid, keeping the
  passive no-op behavior but leaving a grep-able signal
- Cover EnvTraceContext::from_env (both spellings, padding, blanks) and
  the GatewayInterceptor auth+trace composition with tests
- Drop tracestate when traceparent is invalid, and assert it in tests
- Narrow the traces.mdx claim to standard CLI commands, since term and
  completions build clients without the trace interceptor

- split the env-reading test so the mixed-case steps only run where
  environment names are case-sensitive; the Windows MSVC lane no longer
  fails on them
- restore mutated env vars through a drop guard so a failed assertion
  cannot leak them into other tests in the same process
- add an SDK test proving auth_interceptor() clones see a refreshed
  OIDC token through the shared bearer slot
- word the trace-forwarding docs around OpenTelemetry integrations
  instead of implying CI runners export TRACEPARENT natively

installs. Kind lanes logged a BatchSpanProcessor.ExportError every batch.
The local gateway tasks probed 127.0.0.1:4317 instead, and the gateway
task configured the endpoint unconditionally.

Move the collector endpoint into ci/values-local-tracing.yaml, layered only

when OPENSHELL_DEV_OTLP_ENDPOINT is set.

…lution (NVIDIA#5213)

Cut the procfs and hashing work openshell-binary-identity pays for every
external connect, all of it synchronous on the sandbox broker thread
while the workload's connect(2) stays blocked:

- Cap /proc/<pid>/cmdline reads at 128 KiB so a long command line can
  no longer grow per-connect work without bound. Reading one byte past
  the cap keeps the truncation predicate exact, and the truncated tail
  drops its last argument so no partial fragment reaches cmdline_paths.
- Deduplicate the collected cmdline paths with a hash set instead of a
  quadratic Vec scan, preserving the insertion order consumers compare.
- Evict one digest-cache entry at capacity instead of clearing the
  whole cache, so a capacity crossing no longer forces a full-file
  rehash of every live executable.
- Read /proc/<pid>/status once per ancestry hop instead of twice, so
  the NSpid check and the parent PID come from one kernel generation.
- Hash executables with a 64 KiB buffer instead of 8 KiB; a same-run
  release-mode comparison over a page-cached 100 MiB file measures
  about 1.28x throughput (68.9 ms vs 88.2 ms per hash).

Digests, fail-closed Option contracts, and cmdline_paths for
untruncated command lines are unchanged; streaming digests stay
byte-identical, pinned by an equivalence test against the one-shot
facade hash.
